New! Plugin Severity Now Using CVSS v3

Synopsis

A web browser installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote host is prior to 88.0.4324.146. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2021_02_stable-channel-update-for-desktop advisory.
